Metal and Earth

Chapter 14

"Uhm… hi Pearce," greeted the princess when he arrived at the **** Café.

Pearce was silent and just sat in the front seat of the princess.

…there was an awkward silence when Pearce sat down.

"Uhm are you okay?" the princess asked, breaking the silence.

Pearce didn’t speak and Yani didn’t no longer speak after.

Pearce was not surprised so the princess asked that because of the look he is showing now. Who wouldn't be on a bad mood if you were forced to date an important princess just because of a simple-minded girl?! Why is that princess so annoying?!

And what's more annoying…

Pearce looked at Yani that startled her but Pearce didn’t notice that because the truth is, he’s looking at the table just behind Yani where the annoying princess was sitting. He even saw the princess grinning at him who is even wearing shades just so she wouldn't be “recognized” supposedly.

Pearce just closed his eyes just to calm himself down. Why is she a chismosa (gossiper)?!
